    It's simply bad UI design. (Originally it was only intended as a temporary solution.)

    It is the receiving app that decides how to handle the drag. MailMate just puts variations on the pasteboard. Note that the same drag should be capable of being...

    No problem. (I would still like to see an example of the headers of a message to an alias, but that is up to you.)

    I think you can fix your problems by specifying your aliases explicitly in the “Email Address(es)” field of the accounts settings. Read more here. If you have t...

    There is polling involved. IMAP requires an open connection to a mailbox if polling is to be avoided. Currently MailMate only does this for INBOX'es (these mail...

    It is not the entering of the message body which triggers the addition. It is the change of the To header and that is expected behavior.
